Looks like a pricing error on the Xbox Live Costa Rica store.

Injustice is currently free. Great game, for this price I would heartily recommend it!

Here are some instructions on how to go about this kind of region swapping business:

  1. On your computer make a new Windows Live account with Costa Rica as your region (an Outlook address is easiest).

  2. On your Xbox make a new profile, again with Costa Rica as your region.

  3. Use the Outlook address when you have to enter an email.

  4. Go to the tab that lets you press Y to search.

  5. Search for Injustice. The first thing on the list should be the full game. Click download and make sure the file size is 7.8 gigs or thereabouts.

  6. On your computer go to the Xbox account migration page. Sign in with the email address you created in step 1 and change your region to Australia.

  7. Signing in to the account migration page probably booted you out of your Xbox profile, so go back to your Xbox and sign in again. You should see the AUS storefront and the game should still be in your download queue.

NOTE: I posted this deal before actually trying this for myself. Plenty of people have been claiming it works though, but surely it won't last long.

EDIT: Costa Rica store no longer works, but Slovakia does.

EDIT 2: Ikaruga is also there for free!

    It works
    WEB LINK HERE

  • Username3RR0r on 10/09/2013 - 20:23

    Ugh, My Xbox insists on doing an update before I can log into Live !!!

      It's probably to update to the new payment system

    It's just a fighting game, right?

  • Nousernamehere on 10/09/2013 - 20:32

    I got an error when trying to download it
    "Status code: 80153003"

  • mrgeckoz on 10/09/2013 - 20:58

    good post but really cant be bothered to setup a new account…

    I don't have an option to download? It just has two tiles for "rate" or "pin to home"
    EDIT: Seem's like Costa Rica doesn't work anymore. Slovakia apparently does.

      Great call mate. Switched to Slovakia and got it

      • BlazinPast on 10/09/2013 - 21:15

        Yep, I got it sitting in download queue now.
        If anyone can answer this, if I play on another Xbox 360, would I have to sign into my Slovakian account to re-download the game? If so, I better keep the email/password safe.

      Thanks for that! I updated the OP

    • bfg100k on 10/09/2013 - 22:09

      I am consistently getting error code 80153016 after I switched the Costa Rica account to Slovakia :( Did you create a new account using Slovakia or switched region?

      • BlazinPast on 10/09/2013 - 22:14

        I created a new account.
        I think the deal is currently hit or miss? Seems like its working for some but not for others

    • unifex on 10/09/2013 - 21:08

    Ikaruga is free as well. ;)

    • Poimandres on 10/09/2013 - 21:20

      Indeed it is. Makes me wonder what else is free?

  • RocketSwitch on 10/09/2013 - 21:25

    When I try to download, it says "Sorry, there's a problem with the Xbox service. Try again later." Status code: 80153016.

    Any idea why?

    • Username3RR0r on 10/09/2013 - 21:26

      I just setup a Slovakia account and I'm getting the same message.

      • RocketSwitch on 10/09/2013 - 21:32

        Ikaruga works, just downloaded that for free. But Injustice not working, get that message above.

  • save my dollarydoos on 10/09/2013 - 21:27

    Keeps asking me for credit card details :(

  • unifex on 10/09/2013 - 21:34

    Where do you click on the page to get the game i cant see a link to buy the game

  • unifex on 10/09/2013 - 21:35

    So this was a waste of time.? I logged in and none of the links worked from when the poster first put it up.

    • silverrat23 on 10/09/2013 - 21:42

      You have to download it via the console itself, not the website. Have you tried that?

      • unifex on 10/09/2013 - 21:49

        Yes error 80153016

  • RocketSwitch on 10/09/2013 - 21:43

    Heh, they actually removed the game.

  • congo on 10/09/2013 - 21:51

    Does anyone have a weblink please?

    • unifex on 10/09/2013 - 21:54

      Doesn't work either
      Removed entirely from the Costa and Error 80153016

      Thanks for posting anyway OP

      frustrating having created a new account and not got anywhere. Pity I actually wouldnt have minded getting this game.

      • congo on 10/09/2013 - 22:58

        ok. thanks.

  • Firefly on 08/10/2013 - 19:33

    Given that Microsoft ended up banning people who took advantage of this, I am glad I missed out on this deal!
